A new housing report paints a picture of 'greedy' landlords exploiting tenants with inflated prices, adding to a housing affordability crisis in Central Otago.

The Southern District Health Board report is based on 25 interviews with 18 different agencies including the Ministry of Social Development, Oranga Tamariki and local schools.

It found booming migration is putting the squeeze on housing in the area - increasing inequality and decreasing the availability of quality housing.
